Localization method for lines of discontinuity of an approximately defined function of two variables

A function of two variables with lines of discontinuity of the first kind is considered. It is assumed that outside the discontinuity lines the function is smooth and has a bounded partial derivative. An approximation to the function in L ₂ and a perturbation level are known. The problem in question belongs to a class of nonlinear ill-posed problems, which are solved by constructing some regularizing algorithms. We propose a simple theoretical approach to solving the problem of localizing the discontinuity lines of a function that is noisy in the space L ₂. Some conditions on the exact function are imposed ??in the small.?? Methods of averaging are constructed, and error estimates of localizing the lines (in the small) are obtained.
